Other comedy sci-fi I would recommend: 5th element, Men in Black , Space Balls, Weird science, Time Bandits and Inner space . Let me know any suggestions you have for future video topics!
@@davidjenkins5962 Nope it was released with that edit, they did not want to lose their PG rating. Also it was R rated to start with, they cut it down hard. :D
Am I the only one that gets weird uneasy feeling while watching that movie that makes me hate it? I like the idea and everyone seems to love it but for some reason I can't sit through it without getting a weird angry, impatient and anxious feeling that makes me hate it.
While watching Evolution for the first time, I felt almost a deja vu sensation; something about it seemed very familiar, but I didn't recognize it until Dan Akroyd showed up. Then I realized I was watching Ghost Busters 3! Its one of my favorite Sci-Fi Comedies of all time. Great script, great cast, great special effects, all around good movie.
DeathRace 2000 is excellent, Dark Star is another 70's comedy sci-fi but it is definitely an acquired taste. A Boy and His Dog is another one worth a watch.
Hahaha I remember Short Circuit. I was a kid when I first saw it. Now that you mention it in here, guess it's another one of those "Memory Movies" where once its mentioned you instantaneously remember it being a thing and now you wanna watch it after many years
HyperDrive Yes sir. I both laugh and feel grateful for the "hemomancer" cheat sheet. Thank you for it! Drive, I've got to ask: do you practice your videos? I ask because your pacing is at a professional level!
"Deathrace 2000" is so woven into our culture that people who have never seen it point at pedestrians in the roadway and quip "10 points!" "Cocoon" is about the only mainstream screen appearance of the lovely and gracious Tahnee Welch, more's the pity... She got stuck in B-Movie Hell. "Ice Pirates"-I salute the person who costumed the extras! OK< so classics like "Space Balls" isn't there but "Galaxy Quest" being on the list redeems the list.
Omg Death Race! I have referenced this movie countless times in my high school days when in the car with my friends calling out the usual "10 points for the grandma!" type jokes without even knowing this movie existed!!
love these videos. straight forward, unique look. genuine content too, not making an entire video set around to promote 1 upcoming movie. you deserve more subscribers. I'm always pointing my movie enthusiast friends to your channel
Your best video to date. A superb selection. Galaxy Quest is one of my all-time favourite Sci-Fi comedies. Also, Short Circuit 2 is well worth a mention - it's up there as one of the best sequels ever made. xx
Cheers Wen or should I say Ben? Short Circuit 2 is great, I also prefer it to number 1, but I just thought I'd suggest one, so if they like it, they have a 2!
"It's a light grenade! You pull the pin, set it down, whoever picks it up . . . POOF! Grenade remains, person disappears!" "That's the stupidest thing I ever heard of! Who'd pick it up?"
Mars Attacks, Young Frankenstein, Death Race 2000, Evolution, Cocoon, The Ice Pirates, Short Circuit, Galaxy Quest - have watched 7 out of 8. But I agree, there are some other movies that deserve more to be on this list: John Carpenter's Dark Star, Back to the Future, Explorers and (my personal favorite) Buckaroo Banzai. Also: Spaceballs, Time Bandits and Killer Klowns From Outer Space are worth mentioning.
i absolutely ADORE frankenstein jr, i watched it billions of times, and i also adore science fiction, it's one of my favourite genres, and so are romantic comedies, so this video was a treat to me, but i have never ever considered frankenstein jr to be science fictional whatsoever.
Galaxy Quest: Best Star Trek movie ever. Short Circuit: What Chappie wanted to be but couldn't. Cocoon: Would have put MiB in its place. Death Race: Why isn't this in the distopian list instead? Or maybe make a Deadly Games movie list? Evolution: The movie that brough "Play that funky music" back. Young Frankenstein: on second thought, shouldn't you have saved it for the horror comedy list? Mars Attacks: Greatly underappreciated, one of the few trading card movie adaptations in existence, the other one being the Garbage Pail Kids. Ice Pirates: Where can I watch it?
Seen them all but Deathrace 2000 and Ice Pirates, so I'll have to keep an eye out. I do love the others though and have seen most of them multiple times
Glad to see Galaxy Quest on this list. So perfect in so many ways. And Idiocracy has been mentioned in the comments more than once. The premise of that one is kinda scary 'cause it's kinda true and we can kinda see it starting now.
I totally agree. That was the first movie I thought of and I followed the whole video through just to see if it was listed. That's the trick of this whole series. I like it and sometimes I don't,
“Death Race 2000” is SO weird and SO great. I don’t know why it took me as long as it did to see it! It is a product of its decade in a lot of ways, though, so keep that in mind when you watch it.
WOW. Not one, but underappreciated gems. Evolution and Ice Pirates. I haven't thought about them in ages, but both were in regular "crappy day at work" VHS rotation. Thanks
There are the occasional TV series that throw in a comedic episode from time to time, Stargate SG1 had some classics thanks mainly to Richard Dean Anderson's sense of humour.
I would recommend PAUL, starring Simon Pegg, Nic Frost, Jason Bateman and Sigourney Weaver----A movie about two Sci-fi enthusiasts from England encounter an alien named Paul, whose running from the government. Another highly recommended film BUBBA HO-TEP, Bruce Campbell as an eldely Elvis Presley and Ossie Davis, elderly black man who thinks he's JFK, fight a zombie in a nursing home. a funny off beat movie.
Spaceballs is a parody of star wars... star wars is not sci-fi is fantacy in space, is not the same. but... no "hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy"? no "idiocracy"?
The BBC TV series of Hitchhiker was dreadful, with a squeaky Sandra Dickinson making a complete mess of Trillian (although the script didn't help) and unfunnily awful BBC effects. The radio series, the first appearance of Hitchhiker on broadcast, is, by contrast, fall-off-your-chair funny. The movie is pretty good, as long as you're not expecting a "film of the book". Douglas Adams would never leave the plot alone, which is why the books are different from the radio series, the TV series is different from the books and the movie (coming a very long time after all the others) is different again. Nothing is as good as the first radio series.
I've never gotten why anyone would care for Silent Running as anything more than a curiosity. It has an interesting look but the premise is ridiculous and the theme is so ham fisted it's kind of painful.
I would mention John Carpenters and Dan O'Bannon's the Dark Star. A film that blends unintentional and intentional humor with sci fi. Also there are some elements in the film that would also inspire Dan O'Bannon's contribution to Alien.
I'm going waaaay out on a limb by suggesting "Return of the Killer Tomatoes". Much better and funnier than it's predecessor. It also stars a very young and unknown George Clooney as one of the teens in the movie. When I watched it, I remarked that the kid had more charisma in his little finger than we had in our entire bodies combined! "That kid is gonna be a big star someday".
Space Truckers with Dennis Hopper; Invasion of the Saucer Men, Galaxia, Morons from Outer Space, Flesh Gordon, Mouse on the Moon, Just Imagine, What Planet Are You From?
Sci-Fi comedy is even more difficult to do well than "actual" sci-fi. Does Bad Taste qualify as comedy and sci-fi? I found Grabbers weirdly amusing (on UA-cam). And Starship Troopers started having some appeal after second time seeing it, like ten years after first time.
I love :Starship Troopers" for the (unintended) comedy. Funniest line: "Not with an officer. No, sir. The MI doesn't mint stupid troopers." Strangely, I was the only one in the theater who laughed. :-(
It's a hard one to call.. Starship troopers makes me laugh a lot- the same goes for Bad Taste and Big trouble in Little China.. I guess it all depends on the person.
Good! I often have seen most of the films on your lists and was expecting that this time too, but was very positively surprised I have now many new films to watch. Good job! Although these list style videos always make people shout out for their favourite movies, I think they are best when they contain something I haven't seen yet.
I'd hardly consider Cocoon a comedy, it's more drama than comedy. If Cocoon is a comedy then so is E.T. the Ice Pirates is supreme B-movie camp and pretty good movie but the last 15 mins are bad.
I went to see it at the drive in at midnight on a Saturday night after I got off work. Little did I know the drive in showed (soft) porn at that time. I couldn't figure out how all the tits and ass was going to lead in to a sci fi movie...and it didn't. So that's how I saw my first porno.
Other comedy sci-fi I would recommend: 5th element, Men in Black , Space Balls, Weird science, Time Bandits and Inner space . Let me know any suggestions you have for future video topics!
HyperDrive do a list on underrated space opera movies and another list for series please.
I love your content! Thank you
I'm working on a Space Opera.. it's tricky though.. might add Anime to the list.
I'm surprised Idiocracy didn't make the list.
Is Young Einstein science fiction?
The ones you mentioned there should have been on the list.
Galaxy Quest is literally one of the most solid movies ever made. There's literally nothing wrong with it. It's just an all around great movie.
Evolution: "THERE'S ALWAYS TIME FOR LUBRICANT!!!!" That was so hilarious.
I love Ice Pirates, its a classic 80's low budget science fiction film.
Sigourney Weaver definitely DOES NOT say "screw" that....... ;)
She doesn't in the original, but in the cuts you get now, she does.
@@davidjenkins5962 Nope it was released with that edit, they did not want to lose their PG rating. Also it was R rated to start with, they cut it down hard. :D
Alan Rickman was great !
'No Battries Included'
That was a great movie
"Batteries Not Included"
Cute movie!
It's not a comedy.
@@andrewsmith74 neither was "Cocoon." He was wrong about that. That was sci-fi drama.
I love Ice Pirates, glad it's getting some recognition!
I liked it, too. Surprised it made it to the list. Surprised so many here have mentioned it.
Mike Judge's _Idiocracy_ is my favourite sci-fi comedy.
aaaaaand now i have to go watch galaxy quest.
coolstream1 same here. It's very good.
And that's a bad thing?
Am I the only one that gets weird uneasy feeling while watching that movie that makes me hate it? I like the idea and everyone seems to love it but for some reason I can't sit through it without getting a weird angry, impatient and anxious feeling that makes me hate it.
tskwared667, maybe you are a former sci-fi actor and the scenes at the beggining are just too painful to watch?
Dude! The failed teleportation during the fight scene had me in tears every time I watch it. Never gets old!🤣🤣🤣🤣
Life of Brian? Thats got a spaceship in it.
Good point! lol
Chappie directly based on short circuit. Hugely ahead of its time
Chappie is not a comedy though.
Idiocracy! The dystopia-parody where humankind has become really, really dumb. Written and directed by Mike Judge.
No need to watch it. Just look out your window.
While watching Evolution for the first time, I felt almost a deja vu sensation; something about it seemed very familiar, but I didn't recognize it until Dan Akroyd showed up. Then I realized I was watching Ghost Busters 3! Its one of my favorite Sci-Fi Comedies of all time. Great script, great cast, great special effects, all around good movie.

GOTTA WATCH ALL THESE MOVIES!!!!
Today I've watched Logan's Run and it was freaking amazing... same goes for Videodrome
THANK YOU, HYPER DRIVE
Seen all of them ... loved them all ... Galaxy Quest has Alan Rickman ... need I say more?
Hahaha I remember Short Circuit. I was a kid when I first saw it. Now that you mention it in here, guess it's another one of those "Memory Movies" where once its mentioned you instantaneously remember it being a thing and now you wanna watch it after many years
Was one of my favorite childhood movies, also the sequel was amazing.
Hyper Drive great content as always! I'm going to share this with my buddies! Keep going! Thank you!
Cheers hemomancer, did you check out the mini list I made in the description lol.
HyperDrive Yes sir. I both laugh and feel grateful for the "hemomancer" cheat sheet. Thank you for it! Drive, I've got to ask: do you practice your videos? I ask because your pacing is at a professional level!
Oh I spend an entire day recording these bloody videos lol. But I'm getting faster at it!
"Deathrace 2000" is so woven into our culture that people who have never seen it point at pedestrians in the roadway and quip "10 points!"
"Cocoon" is about the only mainstream screen appearance of the lovely and gracious Tahnee Welch, more's the pity... She got stuck in B-Movie Hell.
"Ice Pirates"-I salute the person who costumed the extras!
OK< so classics like "Space Balls" isn't there but "Galaxy Quest" being on the list redeems the list.
Good selection, though I was less than impressed with Mars Attacks. I'd add in Fifth Element. Others mentioned Paul, too.
Galaxy Quest is one of the best movies ever! And I agree with your assessment of Young Frankenstein. Genius!
Good choices! I'd like to see more (good) sci-fi comedies, as the genre is usually so serious.
Omg Death Race! I have referenced this movie countless times in my high school days when in the car with my friends calling out the usual "10 points for the grandma!" type jokes without even knowing this movie existed!!
7:00 she definitely didn't say screw.
love these videos. straight forward, unique look. genuine content too, not making an entire video set around to promote 1 upcoming movie. you deserve more subscribers. I'm always pointing my movie enthusiast friends to your channel
Thanks Blake, much appreciated! Hopefully I will be doing some regular movie reviews too + some more trope stuff similar to the "protagonist throw"
No dissassembleee, Jonny5 ALIVE!
STEPHANIIIIIIE! xD
Your best video to date. A superb selection. Galaxy Quest is one of my all-time favourite Sci-Fi comedies. Also, Short Circuit 2 is well worth a mention - it's up there as one of the best sequels ever made. xx
Cheers Wen or should I say Ben? Short Circuit 2 is great, I also prefer it to number 1, but I just thought I'd suggest one, so if they like it, they have a 2!
Once again loved the video keep it up, from one Greg to another :p
lol cheers buddy!
Ice Pirates. Classic.
Galaxy Quest managed, somehow, to both parody and revere Star Trek and did both beautifully.
Since it wasn't in the video and I haven't seen anyone recommend it in the comments. Mom and Dad Save the World (1992) is definitely one to check out.
I haven't seen it, will check it out. thx
You should! I like it better than Space Balls.
"It's a light grenade! You pull the pin, set it down, whoever picks it up . . . POOF! Grenade remains, person disappears!"
"That's the stupidest thing I ever heard of! Who'd pick it up?"
Mars Attacks, Young Frankenstein, Death Race 2000, Evolution, Cocoon, The Ice Pirates, Short Circuit, Galaxy Quest - have watched 7 out of 8. But I agree, there are some other movies that deserve more to be on this list: John Carpenter's Dark Star, Back to the Future, Explorers and (my personal favorite) Buckaroo Banzai.

Mars Attacks: Greatly underappreciated, one of the few trading card movie adaptations in existence, the other one being the Garbage Pail Kids.
Ice Pirates: Where can I watch it?
At 7:00, Sigourney says "screw that" but her lips say "fuck that". I've seen that in movies so many times. Yippee Ki-Yay, Mr. Falcon
Ironic that your channel is HyperDrive and your covering sci fi comedy. BBC had a sci fi comedy series by the same name and it's pretty good.
Coincidentally I was unaware if this until I made my channel.. and got a pleasant surprise haha!
Ice Pirates is amazing, one of my favorite sci-fi movies. Two words: Space Herpes.
This channel needs more subscription. Honestly.
thx Jim, it's slowly getting there!
Seen them all but Deathrace 2000 and Ice Pirates, so I'll have to keep an eye out. I do love the others though and have seen most of them multiple times
Glad to see Galaxy Quest on this list. So perfect in so many ways. And Idiocracy has been mentioned in the comments more than once. The premise of that one is kinda scary 'cause it's kinda true and we can kinda see it starting now.
Short Circuit is very respected here in Brazil
ICE PIRATES!! YES!!!! My favorite 80's B-movie!
It wasn't a B movie, it actually had quite a budget.
Did you forget John Carpenter's Dark Star (1974)?
I totally agree. That was the first movie I thought of and I followed the whole video through just to see if it was listed. That's the trick of this whole series.
I like it and sometimes I don't,
First movie I looked for when I opened this video.
I like it- but ironically as a Hard sci-fi and not as a comedy.
F1083 You and me both. But hey, Cocoon. This list has less taste than my balls.
Perhaps like how I ironically like Silent Running as a sci-fi comedy.
"Damn your eyes!" Gets me every time haha
May I suggest BBC's Red Dwarf. Kryton has his moments. Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy is on the fence, but Marvin is funny.
“Death Race 2000” is SO weird and SO great. I don’t know why it took me as long as it did to see it! It is a product of its decade in a lot of ways, though, so keep that in mind when you watch it.
If Bugs Bunny were live action, this is what it would look like...
WOW. Not one, but underappreciated gems. Evolution and Ice Pirates. I haven't thought about them in ages, but both were in regular "crappy day at work" VHS rotation. Thanks
There are the occasional TV series that throw in a comedic episode from time to time, Stargate SG1 had some classics thanks mainly to Richard Dean Anderson's sense of humour.
SG1 was an instant classic - Macgyver just made the show so much better!
@@Hyperdriveuk Indeed. ua-cam.com/video/J847OF_jZ20/v-deo.html

Woody Allen 's "Sleeper" 1973
Man in the White Suit, Man who could work miracles, Space Truckers, Ghidra the Three headed Monster.
No, it's pronounced Fronk-en-steen.
What a pair of knockers.
Nice tunes in the background. Love these lists, keep it up :D
cheers! Will do!
How the hell Spaceballs is NOT in this list? :D
Because it's predictable. I hate been predictable :-D
Spaceballs is a parody of star wars... star wars is not sci-fi is fantacy in space, is not the same.
but... no "hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy"? no "idiocracy"?
I totally agree with Hyper. I love Brooks, but Spaceballs is maybe his worst work since the 8 Chairs or whatever it was.
Because the Hitchhiker's Guide movie was bad. The BBC miniseries was good though.
The BBC TV series of Hitchhiker was dreadful, with a squeaky Sandra Dickinson making a complete mess of Trillian (although the script didn't help) and unfunnily awful BBC effects. The radio series, the first appearance of Hitchhiker on broadcast, is, by contrast, fall-off-your-chair funny.

Dark Star, Silent running.
I've never gotten why anyone would care for Silent Running as anything more than a curiosity. It has an interesting look but the premise is ridiculous and the theme is so ham fisted it's kind of painful.
When we lip-read Sigourney Weaver in the final Galaxy Quest scene in the video, she most definitely did *not* say " _screw_ that"...
If this counts as sci-fi comedy then I'd say Brazil is my favorite.
Where was Flesh Gordon?
LOL...like how you can clearly see Sigourney Weaver NOT saying 'screw that' in that final scene, but rather 'f*** that'...;)
Man you don't make videos, you're putting the fine art in the frame.... Greetings from Brazil
I thought PAUL would be on this list.
Hydrogen One -- Oh my God! I totally agree. I absolutely love PAUL!
Willy: "How come I can understand you? Are you using some neural language router?"
Paul: "Actually I'm speaking English you fucking idiot!"
ME: HAHAHA
Paul is very cool- I was tempted to put it on, but it was down to a coin toss on that or Mars Attacks.
hitchhiker guide ? idiocracy ? independence day ?
Definite thumbs up for a non dystopian future video.
Can't stand dystopian futures, Way too depressing and no sense of wonder or hope
After watching depressing movies for around a month.. I couldn't agree with you more! haha!
R.I.P.D. a smashup of ghost busters and men in black was very funny. I love me some Jeff Bridges and that Ryan Reynolds.
Not one of my favorites but The Last Starfighter is a sci-fi comedy.
Some brilliant films mentioned here, especially Galaxy Quest,but it would have been nice if the classic Dark Star had got a mention.
Evolution spoiled a lot of its immersion by having blatant product placement in, right up to the last minute!
I thought the product placement part was hilarious.. the commercial at the end is my favourite part.
I would mention John Carpenters and Dan O'Bannon's the Dark Star. A film that blends unintentional and intentional humor with sci fi. Also there are some elements in the film that would also inspire Dan O'Bannon's contribution to Alien.
Not a movie. But the anime "Martian Successor Nadesico" is one of the best in the very common comedy sci-fi genre of anime.
Nadesico is pretty cool, might do an anime video soon. Working on a Gits video atm.
Who the fuck has ever said Young Frankenstein's overacting gets tiring by the end? There's a lot of questionable opinions on this list.
I think Electric Dreams is a good fit for this video.
“Hilarious” is a very strong word for this list.
Comedy is subjective- I know people who cry watching some of these movies. I find them all funny.
Ice Pirates is one of my favorite movies from my childhood.
Sigourney Weaver, you didn't say "screw that." lol
They changed it to get the PG rating.
MrMarkb68 I know. It's still hilarious.
Galaxy quest is top! And also Frequently Asked Questions About Time Travel should be on the list.
I watched Mars Attacks and Short Circuit several times as a kids, but never watched E.T. all the way through because I though he was too creepy.
I'm going waaaay out on a limb by suggesting "Return of the Killer Tomatoes". Much better and funnier than it's predecessor. It also stars a very young and unknown George Clooney as one of the teens in the movie. When I watched it, I remarked that the kid had more charisma in his little finger than we had in our entire bodies combined! "That kid is gonna be a big star someday".
Space Truckers with Dennis Hopper; Invasion of the Saucer Men, Galaxia, Morons from Outer Space, Flesh Gordon, Mouse on the Moon, Just Imagine, What Planet Are You From?
Where's Sleeper, starring Woody Allen? Absolutely hilarious in all the right ways!!
its a live action Futurama
yeah sleeper
YF truly is one of the greatest comedy films of any type ever made.
7:00 - Thaaaaat's not what she said :)
Fuck that!
Sigourney.....damn she looked stunning.
Too true
She still does, her and Jamie Lee Curtis both.
I have all of these except "Ice Pirates". Gonna have to find that.
Not a movie, but the too-short-lived show People of Earth was fantastic!
Great quality content as usual good job
Cheers!
awesome channel! great movie night inspiration :)
_Young Frankenstein_ is not exactly what I would call a *Science-Fiction* Parody. Also you forgot John Carpenter's classic _Dark Star_
Love everyone of those movies. Fantastic list!
No starship troopers!? This list in incomplete, that is hands down the greatest b grade sci fi comedy even made. Would you like to know more?
I love Starship Troopers but it's an action drama with a lot of great humor, not a comedy. My opinion ... great comment BTW.
I think you may be confusing satire with comedy.
Sci-Fi comedy is even more difficult to do well than "actual" sci-fi. Does Bad Taste qualify as comedy and sci-fi? I found Grabbers weirdly amusing (on UA-cam). And Starship Troopers started having some appeal after second time seeing it, like ten years after first time.

Funniest line: "Not with an officer. No, sir. The MI doesn't mint stupid troopers."
Strangely, I was the only one in the theater who laughed. :-(
It's a hard one to call.. Starship troopers makes me laugh a lot- the same goes for Bad Taste and Big trouble in Little China.. I guess it all depends on the person.
Wheeeereee is Idiocracy?
'Comedies' not 'documentaries'.
…otherwise yeah (big time).
I'm saving it for another video!
Good! I often have seen most of the films on your lists and was expecting that this time too, but was very positively surprised I have now many new films to watch. Good job!
Although these list style videos always make people shout out for their favourite movies, I think they are best when they contain something I haven't seen yet.
Perhaps for a list of sci-fi movies that accurately predicted the future? ;-)
@elijah mikle I wish, all I get is coffee from Starbucks.
Ha Ha! The Ice Pirates. Loved that flick as a kid.
I have not seen galaxy quest... I guess this must be remedied!
You will not regret that decision.
I'd hardly consider Cocoon a comedy, it's more drama than comedy. If Cocoon is a comedy then so is E.T. the Ice Pirates is supreme B-movie camp and pretty good movie but the last 15 mins are bad.
The original Death Race was awesome. I saw it as a young kid in the 1970's, told my friends about it, they thought I was making up a fantastic story.
I went to see it at the drive in at midnight on a Saturday night after I got off work. Little did I know the drive in showed (soft) porn at that time. I couldn't figure out how all the tits and ass was going to lead in to a sci fi movie...and it didn't. So that's how I saw my first porno.
Good list, and I fully agree with the number one choice.
Killer Klowns from Outer Space...that is all.
What? No Dark Star? Heresy!
I'd also recommend The Worlds End
Yeah that's a good one!
